cisco.meraki.meraki_mx_static_route module – Manage static routes in the Meraki cloud

Note

This module is part of the cisco.meraki collection (version 2.13.0).

You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible package. It is not included in ansible-core. To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list.

To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install cisco.meraki.

To use it in a playbook, specify: cisco.meraki.meraki_mx_static_route.

Synopsis

• Allows for creation, management, and visibility into static routes within Meraki.

gateway_vlan_id integer	The gateway IP (next hop) VLAN ID of the static route.
host string	Hostname for Meraki dashboard. Can be used to access regional Meraki environments, such as China. Default: "api.meraki.com"
internal_error_retry_time integer	Number of seconds to retry if server returns an internal server error. Default: 60
name string	Descriptive name of the static route.
net_id string	ID number of a network.
net_name string	Name of a network.
org_id string	ID of organization.
org_name aliases: organization string	Name of organization.
output_format string	Instructs module whether response keys should be snake case (ex. net_id) or camel case (ex. netId). Choices: "snakecase" ← (default) "camelcase"
output_level string	Set amount of debug output during module execution. Choices: "debug" "normal" ← (default)
rate_limit_retry_time integer	Number of seconds to retry if rate limiter is triggered. Default: 165
reserved_ip_ranges list / elements=dictionary	List of IP ranges reserved for static IP assignments.

state string	Create or modify an organization. Choices: "absent" "query" "present" ← (default)
subnet string	CIDR notation based subnet for static route.
timeout integer	Time to timeout for HTTP requests. Default: 30
use_https boolean	If no, it will use HTTP. Otherwise it will use HTTPS. Only useful for internal Meraki developers. Choices: false true ← (default)

Notes

Note

• More information about the Meraki API can be found at https://dashboard.meraki.com/api_docs.

• Some of the options are likely only used for developers within Meraki.

• As of Ansible 2.9, Meraki modules output keys as snake case. To use camel case, set the ANSIBLE_MERAKI_FORMAT environment variable to camelcase.

• Ansible’s Meraki modules will stop supporting camel case output in Ansible 2.13. Please update your playbooks.

• Check Mode downloads the current configuration from the dashboard, then compares changes against this download. Check Mode will report changed if there are differences in the configurations, but does not submit changes to the API for validation of change.
